This I where Im very torn on. Dcore construction.
With Commandants earlier dcore assumption of...
Guhle-Hutson
Matheson-Carrier
Xhejak/Struble splitting -Mailloux or Reinbacher
We have Xhejak splitting time. I feel if we want him to develop he needs to play.
My issue is... Struble is a physical beast too and honstly more likely to be a nhl player on a good team. Also he can develop more.
I feel we should either move Mathesson as part of the 2C trade and have xhejak and Strubble rotate in or out of the top four... but we would likely not be better next year.
Or we decide that Struble-Mailloux provide a ton of physicality and bet that Mailloux projects as a more likely NHL player. (2nd PP and puck moving)... then have Xhejak as a tantalizing part of a 2C trade.
I feel our dcore prospects are at an awkward stage.
